Book Review - "Threads of Grace"

"Threads of Grace," another one of Kelly Long's A Patch of Heaven Novel, will warm your heart and immerse you in the lives of the characters.

Book Description from the publisher:

Grace's autistic son needs a life that is safe and consistent. Seth wants to
leave his flirting days behind him and settle down.
Deep in the heart of the Allegheny Mountains of Pennsylvania, the beautiful
and weary Amish widow, Grace Beiler, is not looking for a husband—especially one
so much younger than her. But handsome and smitten Seth Wyse stumbles upon a way
to help her and they marry to keep Grace’s autistic son safe from his
ill-intentioned uncle.
Grace soon discovers that she is far from immune to her young husband’s
experienced charm and realizes that her first marriage has not destroyed her
capacity for love.
Seth Wyse seeks counsel from his older brother, Jacob, when playing the game
of pursuing his wife becomes more dangerous to both his heart and life than he
ever imagined.
Yet God can give Grace and Seth a passion for family and each other that
teaches them the ways of the Master Quilter through the tangled and tender
threads of their lives.

My review:I am a fan of Kelly Long's novels and this one is another winner! The characters are all so lovable and face decisions and hardships just as many of us do in our own lives, making it easy to relate to them as well even though they are Amish and live completely different lifestyles. I love Long's style of writing as it is easy to follow and I am immediately drawn into the story.
